Blergh :x

I was actually looking forward to reading this year thinking it might be a decent lineup for once. But no... I would absolutely love to go see Muse on the saturday but that's the only band i like that is on that day, not worth £50 :/

Ooh Arctic Monkeys.
Ooh Placebo.
Ooh Muse.
Ooh Dirty Pretty Things.
Ooh Maximo Park.
Ooh The Rakes.

Maybe if they were all on the same day I'd consider it, not likely either way considering how far I am from both Leeds and Reading.

I always go to reading, even if the line-up sucks, becasue the atmosphere is great, its a good place to meet up with old friends etc. And besides, its a bit premature to complain about the line up when theres another 100-150 bands yet to be announced.

Also, the Lock Up Stage is on for two days this year. Punk and Hardcore FTW.

I was gonna go to leeds but i decided against it because of the lineup

 

[Kangy]

Yeah, it's a bit... crap, other than Saturday, which looks fantastic (Franz? Belle & Sebastian? Primal Scream? Yes please ).

Well, it matters not - the tickets sold out in under an hour (compared to 2-3 weeks last year).

Yep, i tried for about 2 hours straight for tickets, got through 4/5 times ended up being disconnected in the queue. Absolute nightmare, the online booking services were also jammed. So close as well! Line up looks fantastic, tis a shame.

I always pre-order mine the september before. The main stage lineup doesn't matter to me, I only go for the craic, and the Lock Up Stage, which is the closest thing to a major punk festival that your going to get in the UK.

Pearl Jam and Muse tempted me, and I was talking it over with my mates just after it was announced, but then it sold out so meh.

Agreed.

"Sunday's artists include 60 million album sellers Pearl Jam"

Pearl Jam = best rock band ever. Most of the other bands should be cleaning their shoes.
